opportunity to attend Camp Victory and two to attend the 39 th Annual Conference that took place in Chicago. We are grateful to the Roth family for helping and supporting others during a challenging time. “Brooke Roth touched the lives of everyone who knew her. Diagnosed with LDS at the age of five, she never let her challenges define her. Instead, with strength and courage, she overcame every obstacle that came her way. With a big smile on her face and a positive attitude, Brooke lived to help others. Her dream was to be an elementary school teacher and shape the lives of young people. Although Brooke’s bright light dimmed soon after her 20 th birthday, she is still helping others through the LDS scholarship program. Brooke would be so happy to know she gave families the opportunity to attend Conference in Chicago or attend the wonderful summer camp in Atlanta. We hope the recipients enjoyed this amazing experience in memory of our beautiful daughter, Brooke Roth.” ~ Jill and Matthew
